I had searched for my dream comfort car for 2 years, I tried every hatch/sedan from every dealer within my budget of 21k, nothing was ever good, let’s see what was wrong.

1. I have pudendal neuralgia, every part from below my waist has a problem of it’s very own, it’s also a very rare condition and I hate that I had the misfortune of being born with it, but life. Anyways seats! most were super uncomfortable, some flared me up within 5 minutes of sitting down, it was disastrous.

2. Inner cabin claustrophobia! was the next issue, could barely ...Read more

My Toyota experience has been a bad one. Bought late 2011 came with scratch marks on the outer, a cut tyre that had to be replaced elsewhere at my cost a faded door with paint stains on the side door inside and on back seats.

The car when bought was making loud noises inside and that went on for 3 years even though I had them check it and their reports nothing wrong with it.

Past warranty at 3 years and then they say the barrings had gone and the reason why the car was making a loud noise.

Now my car gets stuck in auto second when going from a stop to start position and it will stay that way for a good 500m. Now that has to get fixed.

I would never buy another toyota again.

Purchased roughly a month ago, brand new. Base model 2020 Toyota Corolla Ascent Sport with the CVT Auto with NAV/GPS option.

Used every weekday, 400km total a week (Use a separate car on the weekends), average of 6.1L per 100km fuel economy with a lot of highway driving.

Previous car was a Hyundai i30 Active (2013) Manual and it got 6.0L per 100km traveling the exact same distance and route. So for an Auto to practically equal a manual is fantastic, AND the Toyota has more power! (110kW vs 125kW).

My first car with a CVT, it's a bit differe...Read more

Got a brand new 2020 Toyota Corolla Automatic Hatch ZR from Melton Toyota. Paid a fortune for it ($38,000). This car is an absolute lemon. There is a genuine defect in the automatic transmission. The car loses power frequently when taking off and when driving at constant speed. I reported the matter to Melton Toyota and after many attempts, they finally reluctantly took the car back for an inspection. They kept the car for one day, and returned it the next day, telling me they found nothing wrong with the car. I took the car back and noticed th...Read more

Ah yes the ever reliable corolla..

I went with it as it is one of the most attractive in its class, decent features for the money, mechincally, realibility & resale wise the best for its class & all within the amount I was willing to spend.
I don’t see it as bland as styling is good with great features.
Parts are plentiful for obvious reasons..
2013 Levin SX $10,000 in 2020 just under 100,000, bit of damage, would’ve been 12 otherwise.

Fuel consumption seems pretty good haven’t done any number crunching yet.
Very happy with it, Toyota’s in general have great build quality & can withstand severe neglect & most only need consumables e.g tyres, breaks replaced throughout their life time here on earth.

I drive the car mainly for shopping & work 3-4 times a week and short trips to drop & pick-up kid from school. Fuel consumption is impressive, on average 3.9ltr/100kms. Overall this car is easy to operate, very quite on EV mode and very cheap to run - a trip to petrol station every second month. A great value for money if you are looking for a car that does the job, responsive, comfortable to ride and handles road bumps quite well especially when having sleeping small children on board, roomy without taking up much spaces in parking lot and tru...Read more

Intro
2014 Corolla sedan, automatic, white with tinted windows, floor mats and boot liner mat.
We purchased our 2014 Corolla in late 2017 and have had it for nearly three years now. This car is used for local trips through the week with two young children (one rear facing child seat and one front facing child seat) and is our primary car over the weekend. Note: Product Review calls this model the E170 sedan. This may be a collective designation for both body shapes but it's called the ZRE172 everywhere else.

Boot space = 470L (on top of a full size spare)...Read more

Have had my hybrid for 1 month. Was initially looking at the Lexus UX hybrid. But the Corolla was a sportier drive and had a nicer interior - plus was half the price. The Corolla is great to drive, has good visibility and has more technology than I can use. It is amazing driving in electric mode - so silent.

The only negative is that the hybrid battery is going flat because the car is not driven every day. When I enquired about this, I was told to take the car on a long drive.

The Toyota Australia website states the "high-voltage Hybrid 'tr...Read more
